摘要： Apparatus and associated methods relate to lyophilizing a solid phase composition (SPC). In an illustrative example, the SPC is received in a frozen state in a first packaging. The SPC may be, for example, transferred into a second packaging having a thermally conductive layer, mechanically distributed to a predetermined maximum thickness to form a block having at least one homogenous dimension, and provided with a heat source configured to communicate substantially all thermal energy to the SPC via the thermally conductive second layer. In some embodiments, the SPC may be maintained in the frozen state. For example, the lyophilized SPC may be transferred to a third packaging. Various embodiments may limit physical contacts with the SPC to the first packaging, the second packaging, and the third packaging. Various embodiments may advantageously maintain sanitation, retain nutrients of the SPC, and/or promote consistent results from the lyophilization process.
